PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS
Operation Cost*
To estimate the cost to operate this heater, multiple the watts used times .001 to convert into a kilowatts measure and multiple by your local kilowatt electric rate for however long you run the heater. For example, if your electric rate is $.1196**per kilowatt hour and you ran this heater in constant high mode (1500 watts) for 4 hours, it would cost you $.71 cents to run the heater (1500 watts x 4 hours x.001) x .1196kwp = .71 cents).
NOTE: : Because the Low setting does not require as much electricity to operate, it is more energy efficient and may be a better option if you are concerned about the higher power consumption when the heater is on the High setting.
